Got all my calculations entered in and understand that part. Question I have- I'm going to eat my TDEE-15% for weight loss on non workout days. On days I workout, I will eat back enough exercise calories to make sure I'm at least eating my BMR but not to exceed TDEE. Is my goal to NET my TDEE? I think I thought about this…

Hi- I'm Kim. I'm turning 30 this year and a mother of 3 wonderful boys. I'm married and work full time nights as a RN In a level II nursery in a labor/ delivery unit. When I started trying to lose weight after the birth of my second child I had no clue what I was doing or what to eat. I just counted calories and wrote them…

I like the unsweetened vanilla. I liked Blue Diamond and then our Walmart quit carrying it so now I buy the Silk brand. Not as yummy but still good!

On the other hand, it's super easy to buy makeup. I just have to pick the lightest shade available and BOOM, perfect match! LOL!

I too, am white as white can be and never even get a hint of color except red from the sun. ALL self tanners make me into an orange person which is much worse looking than the whiteness. I tried the tanning bed thing in high school, but even a few minutes in there and I'd be overcooked, fire red, and looking like a…

Love this! Thanks for the laugh!:laugh:

For those not liking the results from 30DS- If people can see the inches lost on your body and are commenting, that's great! You may not have dropped weight on the scale but nobody but you sees the number on the scale. Inches lost are great and so are your clothes feeling loose! Keep up the good work and don't give up!!! :)

I'm planning to buy this one- thanks for letting us know how it was! I think it's great that it's only 20 mintues! Perfect when you have to squeeze in a quick workout during a busy day!

I'm 5'4" and 129 lbs. Have been trying to get down to 120-125 for long time and not able to do it. I have also been eating at a defecit for a long time. About a year and a half! Even at 0.5 lb/week MFP was giviing me abotu 1400-1500 calories a day and then I realized that I'm not so sure I want to lose the weight. I want…

When I wrk overnight I log for the first day until midnight. Then anything after midnight goes on the next day because it's to long to make my cals stretch for over 24 hours awake. It is working well for me. Then I sleep through lunch the next day so it usually works out well.

Mine took 18 days to get here......but it's here now....

:huh:

I can't eat that stuff. It was too gross for me. I haven't tried it in a protein shake or anything. That might be better but I just couldn't stand it on toast or on an apple or anything....

I broke my front tooth out in elementary school and had to have a root canal (don't try to "jump" speedbumps on a bike if you're not so graceful). Anyways, the tooth is just now (I'm 29) starting to get darker colored near the gumline and I will have to have a crown :( But it's best to get it done right away. You're going…

The resistance cab;e is the worst. Got it adjusted for my height but after wrapping it around my feet and then unwrapping it, the cords slide all around and I get tripped up in it. I'm just going to use my old one from Target that works great!

I was thinking the same way when I started. But I know they'll get harder and i"ll be begging to go back to week 1&2! I just modified with heavier weights and did some jumping and more movements in the Cardio 1!

As the world's pickiest eater, I will not be following the meal plan. I also am not going to cut calories that low. I'm going to continue with the cal MFP gives me and eat back exercise cals. I get too hungry and go bananas otherwise! LOL!

I ordered mine on 2/2 and it showed up on 2/17. They had a problem with a shipment I think. Now I heard they are on backorder?? Anyways I started Monday so I'm almost through the first week. I like it so far. Not getting much of a calorie burn but suprisingly my hamstrings were sore yesterday and today from workout 2 on…

Sounds good, gotta try it! Thanks for sharing!

I like the Polar FT4 also. Gets the job done and very affordable! It can be worn while swimming....

I'd have to agree with the too eggy part. But it wasn't bad. I just think that it needs something else besides all that egg!!!

Wow- what a difference! Great work!

I started mine on Monday. I might continue what you are doing now and then start on Monday. You only repeat the same workout rotation for 2 weeks each so if you plan to rest on Sundays I'd just wait. That way you will get your full 2 weeks of the first workouts!!

Gonna have to try this! Thanks for sharing!

I am the same way!!!! Veggies are the hardest for me to eat. And a salad is out if the question!:cry:

I'm 5'4" and have been trying to get to 120 for some time now. I just can't quite seem to lose those last 5-8 lbs and just keep fluctuating around 126-128. Feel free to add me if you want!

I'll be 30 in November and it doesn't seem like I should be 30 already! My 20's were also spent doing the wife mother thing and I too, will be doing the same thing, however, as my kids gets older and more independent I'm hoping that leaves some more ME time and time to spend with my husband and friends. I want to do it…

Here are some suggestions! Start with all the modified moves and no weights until you can make it through the entire thing. If you can't do something, don't quit. Just keep moving. Maybe you'll be running in place or jumping rope or something but at least ry to keep moving through the entire workout. Eventually you'll be…

I find that when I deny myself something for a long time the binge will come eventually. Like last night. So I'm going to try to allow myself things more often to avoid ruining a weeks worth of work in one sitting! The gum thing doesn't help me either.

Thank you everyone for taking the time to give me some really good ideas and suggestions. I'm willing to try! I'm going to try the grill thing and some different ways of cooking them. I'm also going to hide some in my fruit smoothies! I don't like tomato juice so I think V8 is out but I'll try to mask them in other things…
